OK, cory's are a south American Species and require the type of water that the Sevs are in, and they also like to be in groups as they're a social fish. To be honest, unless It's one of the giant species I wouldn't keep it with any larger Americans mate. Those Sevs are going to get quite big and the Jewels might give it a hard time.

As for the Jewels', put them in with the Severum, they're an African river species that require near enough the same water type as Americans, and although they can be quite plucky, aren't aggressive enough to be with most African lake Cichlids.

Have you got the differing water conditions sorted for both tanks?
